CORDLESS PHONE BASICS

MAKING A CALL

The only two things you need to know to make a call are:

Press the PHONE ON/OFF button before you dial.

Press PHONE ON/OFF or place the handset in the base to hang up. Otherwise, it works just like any other phone.

CAUTION: Because cordless phones operate on electricity, you should have at least one phone in your home that isn’t cordless, in case the power in your home goes out.

PHONE-IN-USE LIGHT

You know the phone is on when you see the Phone-in- Use light on the handset come on.

REDIAL

Press the REDIAL button to redial the last number you called. If you get a busy signal, and want to keep dialing the number, just press REDIAL again (you don’t have to turn the phone off and back on).

RECEIVING A CALL

The Auto Answer feature lets you just pick up and talk when you receive a call while the handset is in the base. If a call is answered on an extension phone, Auto Answer stays active for about 10 seconds after the call is picked up.

To answer a call when the handset is out of the base, you must press PHONE ON/OFF before you can talk.
